Question :26

A wire can be bent in the form of a circle of radius 56 cm. If it is bent in the form of a square, then its area will be:

Answer: (a)

Length of wire = 2π × R = $(2 × {22}/{7} × 56)$cm = 352 cm.

Side of the square = ${352}/4$ cm = 88 cm.

Area of the square = (88 × 88) $cm^2 = 7744 cm^2$.

Question :27

The diameter of circle with centre at C is 50 cm. CP is a radial segment of the circle. AB is a chord perpendicular to CP and passes through P. CP produced intersects the circle at D. If DP = 18 cm then what is the length of AB?

Answer: (d)

In ΔACP, CP = CD – PD = 25 – 18 = 7

By Pythagoras theorem

$AC^2 = CP^2 + AP^2$

AP = $√{AC^2 - CP^2} = √{(25)^2 - (7)^2}$

= $√{625 - 49} = √{576}$ = 24cm

Similarly, PB = 24 cm

∴ AB = AP + PB

= 24 + 24 = 48 cm

Question :28

A wall is of the form of a trapezium with height 4 m and parallel sides being 3 m and 5 m. What is the cost of painting the wall, if the rate of painting is Rs. 25 per sq m?

Answer: (c)

∵ Area of trapezium = $1/2 (3 + 5) × 4 = 16 m^2$

∴ Total cost of painting Rs.25 per sq m = 16 × 25 = Rs.400

Question :29

The sides of a triangle are 50 m, 40 m and 30 m. What is the length of the altitude of the vertex opposite to the side 50 m long?

Answer: (c)

Let a = 30 m, b = 40 m and c = 50 m

mensuration-area-and-volume-aptitude-mcq

Now, 2s = 30 + 40 + 50

⇒ s = 60 m

∴ Δ = $√{60(60 - 30)(60 - 40)(60 - 50)}$

= $√{60 × 30 × 20 × 10}$ = 600

⇒ $1/2 × AB × CD = 600 ⇒ CD = {600 × 2}/{50}$ = 24m

Question :30

ABCD is a parallelogram where AC and BD are the diagonals. If ∠BAD = 60°, ∠ADB = 90°, then what is $BD^2$ equal to ?

Answer: (c)

${BD}/{AB} = {√3x}/{2x} = √3/2$

mensuration-area-and-volume-aptitude-mcq

⇒ $BD^2 = 3/4 AB^2$
